Why Choose Cobra

INTRODUCTION

Capillary FittingsCapillary Fittings

Cobra introduced Capillary (or Solder) fittings to the South African market in 1972. These fittings were, at the time, imported and did not have much impact on the traditional compression fittings and copper tube market. However, with the introduction of hard drawn copper tubing, this system has gained in popularity, particularly in those areas wheregalvanised piping has been used traditionally. Hard drawn copper tubing, when used with Cobra “Copcal” fittings, is comparable in cost to conventional systems.

CAPILLARY FITTINGS

The simple joining technique is a readily acquired skill and can be mastered with little difficulty. Users of Cobra Capillary fittings find this plumbing method much faster than any other.

The introduction of a hard drawn copper tube is less expensive than the widely used domestic copper tube, making it the first choice for copper tube installation, a most economic proposition. The hard drawn copper tube when used with Cobra fittings, is comparable in cost with conventional systems.

The savings in installation time, the competitive price of hard drawn copper tube and Cobra Capillary fittings, as well as the undeniable longevity of copper, make the selection of this system sound economic sense.

NOTE: Fittings with a “D-” prefix are manufactured from Dezincification Resistant Brass.

MAKING A CAPILLARY JOINT

1. Copper tube can be cut with a hacksaw: a fine tooth blade is best, or use a roller tube cutter; Do not put too much pressure on the cutting disk.

2. Clean the ends of the tube with a file or de-burring tool, inside and outside.

3. Apply flux to the outside of tube and inside cup of fitting so that the surfaces to be joined are completely covered. Use flux carefully and sparingly.

4. Bend end of solder wire over- about the length of the size of the fitting ie. 15mm solder for 15mm fittings, etc. Over 50mm diameter, approximately three times the diameter of the fitting is required.

5. Apply flame to the fitting to heat the tube and the top of the fitting until soldermelts when placed at the joint, and then pass the flame towards the centre of the fitting until solder is absorbed and joint completed.

6. Remove excess solder with a small brush (or a damp cloth) while the fitting cools.
